About Luno
Luno updates this pair continuously, currently pricing 1 USD at about KSh134.78.
It charges KSh135.52 in Kenyan Shilling to sell you US Dollar, and pays KSh134.04 when you sell US Dollar back. The KSh1.48 gap between those two prices is what a round trip costs before any fees Luno charges separately.
Monierate records Luno's USD/KES price as a daily open, high, low and close, so the chart and table above show how it has moved rather than just where it stands today. To see whether it is competitive, compare it against every other provider quoting USD/KES.
When Monierate shows a USD rate, the dollars Luno actually holds or settles in may be digital dollars — stablecoins such as USDT or USDC — rather than physical or bank-held fiat USD, and the two are not always interchangeable. Luno may also charge swap, network or transfer fees inside its own app or API which are not part of the quoted rate. Everything here is for information purposes only — confirm the final amount with Luno before you trade.
